You can, or try wiping it, reinstall, and see if it will do the same thing again.

Here are our RMA procedures:

Does the 2030 update tools wipe data on the disk ? As I updated from 18xx firmware to the 2030.

I think i will send it back to my reseller as it will be less expensive than sending it to Taiwan (I'm in France).

Thank you
